This will prevent the exhaust systems
from filling which may lead to water
being injected into the engines. With-
out the engines running there isn't any
exhaust pressure to carry the water
out the exhaust outlet.
NOTICE
Failure to do this may re-
sult in damage to the engines. If
your Sea-Doo boats must be towed
in water and you do not have hose
pinchers, be sure to stay well be-
low the maximum towing speed of
24 km/h (15 MPH).
Install the hose pinchers on the ex-
haust manifold water outlet hoses as
shown for each engine.

NOTICE
When finished towing
the boat, hose pinchers must be re-

do so will result in engines damage.
Submerged Boat and
Water-Flooded Engine
To limit damages to the engines, per-
form the following procedure as soon
as possible.
Drain bilge.
If it was submerged in salt water ,
spray bilge and all components with
fresh water using a garden hose to
stop the salt corroding effect.
NOTICE
Never try to crank or start
the engines. Water trapped in intake
manifolds would flow towards the
engines and may cause severe dam-
age to the engines.
Bring the boat to be serviced by an au-
thorized Sea-Doo boats dealer as soon
as possible.
NOTICE
The longer the delay be-
fore you have the engine serviced,
the greater the damage will be to the
engines. Failure to have the engines
properly serviced will cause severe
engine damage.
